Am I Doing It Right?

Know It All Part 2 Nov 02, 2022

We cannot thank you enough for all the positive feedback we received about the first 'Know It All' episode, so we decided to keep it going this week!

Know It All Oct 26, 2022

We're so close to our THREE YEAR ANNIVERSARY as co-hosts of the Morning Drive on Q104! Hard to believe, but it's true! In that three years, we've learned a lot about each other, and you've learned a lot about us. In this episode, we really sat down to think of things we haven't discussed, so that you can get to know us on a deeper level. We really had fun recording this episode, and we hope you enjoy listening to it just as much!

Pack Your Bags Oct 19, 2022

This episode is all about traveling! We'll hear about Jenny's recent trip to her hometown in Maryland for her niece's wedding. Then, you'll hear a nightmare involving Mike's father-in-law's recent visit to KC. (Don't worry, it all made for a great story.) BONUS: Short episode today because Jenny had a meeting to get to about her contract, and we'll hear all her crazy demands at the end of the episode! (Please don't take any of that conversation seriously...)

Baby Talk Oct 13, 2022

Two things to share with you in this episode!

1. An awesome conversation with Tyler Hubbard, formerly of Florida Georgia Line, about the launch of his solo career, and Jesus!

2. All the baby updates from Mike as his daughter Chandler turns one month old already!

Candlemaker Lovechild Sep 16, 2022

SURPRISE! On this episode, Jenny took a trip over to Mike's house to catch up on how the new dad, and new family, are doing! Whether you've been a parent for 30 days or 30 years, we think you'll relate to just about everything in this conversation.

Welcome To MY World (Jenny's Edition) Sep 02, 2022

We've decided we're going to spend a day in the life of our radio partner, and Jenny's up first! She took Mike out for a day of mimosas and facials! She'll share everything, as well as sit down with Matt Toronto from Aestheticare to talk more about said facials, and all the other self-care options they have!

Moist Aug 24, 2022

Sorry not sorry for the title. Mike has been dealing with a lot of moisture at his house lately, so it seemed appropriate to name this episode that word! The Lord has been preparing the Kellars for parenthood in mysterious ways, and we can't wait to share it all with you!

Life Balance & Life Changes Aug 17, 2022

We've got a little bit of everything in this episode! Jenny shares her new life balance of healthy eating and occasionally pigging out, and that leads into an impressive conversation with singer Ingrid Andress about... potato chips?! Then, we chat about all the upcoming big changes in our lives, as well as reflecting back on previous big life moments. And speaking of major life changes, after TEN YEARS, Tyler Hubbard of Florida Georgia Line is going solo. We talk to him about how difficult it was to make that decision.

Vent Sesh Aug 03, 2022

Sometimes you just need to let it all out! Mike and his wife are going through ALL the stressful things as they get ready for their baby girl to arrive. Jenny has a HOT take about a current trial that many of you know all about. But don't worry, we promise the second half is all positive vibes!

Guardian Angels Jul 20, 2022

It was a weekend of highs and lows for Mike. In this episode, we go deeper than we did on the radio about what happened, and how one person restored a little faith in humanity for all of us.

Tim McGraw Jul 13, 2022

We had the privilege of welcoming Tim McGraw to Q104 for a conversation about his song "$7500 obo", the success of "1883" on Paramount+, and even some workout advice for Jenny as she starts the 75Soft Challenge! We really enjoyed this interview and we hope you will too. Also in this episode, Mike and his wife Katie are 30 weeks into pregnancy, and it's starting to get real for the parents-to-be! Finally, we'll wish Jenny well as we try our best to prepare her to travel on her own for the first time in a long time!

Tyler Henry Jun 29, 2022

He's got a Top 10 show on Netflix, and he joins us this week on the podcast! We're joined by Hollywood medium Tyler Henry to talk about how he connects with his audience, how he deals with non-believers, and what it's like when you realize you can talk to people who have passed on! Afterwards, we talk more about our beliefs, and our relationships with those who have passed on. This was a really interesting discussion and we hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed creating it!

Q&A w/ M&J Jun 22, 2022

We've hit a mental roadblock. So this episode is pretty much an "Ask Us Anything" kind of podcast, and all questions were submitted through the Q104 text line! (816) 600-7104 is that number. So here are all our answers to those burning questions! Thanks to all who asked!

Dogs & Middle School Jun 15, 2022

About 5 minutes before we started recording, Jenny's daughter Jules stopped by the studio, so we decided to invite her to join us on this week's episode! (If you hear rattling in the background, that's just her getting some more Tic Tacs) Mike's poor dog Hank had to get some teeth removed this week, we'll tell you how he's doing. Also we'll chat with Jules about starting middle school this fall!

Gary Lezak Jun 08, 2022

Anyone who's lived in Kansas City for a decent amount of time knows KSHB 41 Chief Meteorologist Gary Lezak. After 30 years on the air, he recently announced he's retiring in December. He was kind enough to join us to talk about his incredible career, and what he plans to do after he signs off for the last time. We cannot thank Gary enough for giving us a few moments of his time.

Texas May 25, 2022

We recorded this episode the day after the inexcusable actions of an 18-year-old gunman in Uvalde, Texas. Emotions and opinions in this episode are raw. Not everyone will agree with the opinions expressed, and that's OK. We're going to have a conversation. A meaningful one. And hopefully, finally, make a difference.

Random Question Generator May 18, 2022

We found a random question generator on the internet, and the first question alone is worth listening to! Get to know us a little better in this episode, and Mike... CALM DOWN!

A Blast From The Past! May 11, 2022

This turned into one of our favorite conversations of all time! We're joined by former Q104 personality Ronnie Phillips, and it unexpectedly turned into one of the most real, raw conversations we've ever had. We'll dive into a conversation about mental health from a man's point of view, and it might actually change your life. Also, Ronnie's company, Heartland Waterfowl, has an incredible event coming up that you absolutely need to be a part of!

Good God May 04, 2022

Don't freak out... but we're diving into RELIGION on this episode! Don't worry, nothing controversial. Just a good talk about our personal relationships with God, our thoughts on church in general, and how He's molded our current relationships. You're hearing a different side of us here, we hope you enjoy it!

Amber Turd Apr 28, 2022

Yeah, we went there. How can you not be fascinated by the Johnny Depp / Amber Heard trial? Even Mike admits, this trial is must watch TV! We'll dive into it with all our thoughts and opinions. We'll also share a funny text exchange between Mike and Tater before the Parker McCollum concert, and then an unexpected concert t-shirt discussion! (Sorry we're a day late this week, we'll be better next week!)

Life Update! Apr 13, 2022

We just wanted to take this episode and catch up on life! We welcome back Tater who we haven't heard from in a few weeks, and Mike gives us all the latest as his wife is now 17 weeks pregnant! Oh, and Jenny mentions the odd person she wanted in the room while delivering her first child!

The Industry Apr 07, 2022

We're stepping out of our comfort zone and talking about something we rarely mention... the business side of country music. It's real, and it needs a shake up. We start with a conversation with country artist Michael Ray, and ask him if he sees and/or wants to see, a change on the horizon. We'll also discuss country's relationship with politics, and honest thoughts about Eric Church's relationship with his fans.

Baby Kellar Mar 30, 2022

We've been waiting a long time to publicly talk about this! MIKE KELLAR IS GOING TO BE A DAD! On this very special episode, we talk about all the secrets we've been keeping over the past two months leading up to the public announcement. Jenny also opens up more about the dog incident that happened in studio. We hope you enjoy this very personal episode :)

ACM Week 2022 Mar 16, 2022

We were so honored to be able to speak to so many country artists leading up to the ACM Awards. In this episode, you'll hear the talks we had with some of your favorites, including Jordan Davis, Lady A, Parker McCollum and so many more! We also took a lot of pride in getting these artists to have conversations they haven't had before, and we're really happy with what came out of it. We hope you enjoy these interviews as much as we did!

Saturday Night in Vegas Mar 10, 2022

Over the weekend, we had the opportunity to visit Las Vegas ahead of the ACM Awards. While we have a lot in common, we have very different ideas of what an ideal Saturday night in Vegas looks like! Join us as we take turns sharing our adventures in Sin City from a trip we won't soon forget!

The Best Day of Your Life Mar 03, 2022

We have so much to talk about! We apologize for being a day late with this episode... we were flat out too tired to put it out on time! But some incredible conversation awaits you in this episode, including a better understanding of the current MLB lockout. We also reveal some questions that we try to ask our radio listeners when they call in, and answer a few ourselves! Prepare for a deeper conversation than you might expect!

A Scandal In Nashville Feb 23, 2022

There has been a major scandal involving Sam Hunt going on in Nashville over the last several days, and we have a lot to say about it on this episode. But it's not all bad. We'll talk about random (and MAJOR) acts of kindness in the second half. And don't worry about the end of this episode where we actually forget we're recording a podcast...

The Tinder Swindler Feb 16, 2022

SPOILER ALERT! If you haven't watched the Tinder Swindler on Netflix, and you plan on watching it, there are spoilers in this episode. We also discuss Mike's shocking non-love for the Halftime Show, and give a major shout out to Mrs. Kellar on her big career news!

Private Parts Feb 09, 2022

This episode is for everyone who is, or who will someday be, parents. Because when you're a parent, kids have questions. And sometimes those questions are tough to answer. Like where do babies come from? Jenny shares the hilarious story of her 9-year-old son asking similar questions, and we'll talk about how Disney/Pixar is hoping to normalize something that all women go through.

Snow Day! Feb 02, 2022

We recorded this episode on a very snowy day in Kansas City, so we thought it'd be awesome to talk about the fun of snow days as a kid, and how they should NEVER take those away from kids, even with virtual learning now being an option. We'll also talk about a conspiracy theory about Patrick Mahomes that more and more people are starting to believe. And the story that Producer Tater shares in the first five minutes is... a story that you would only expect from him!

Football + Food Jan 26, 2022

It is impossible to talk about anything else besides the Chiefs in Kansas City right now! So, keepin' it real, this is it. Football and food. Two of the greatest things in the world!

Todd Nixon's European Vacation Jan 21, 2022

We are grateful to be joined by our boss Todd, and his girlfriend Liz on to tell us all about their 10-day trip to Europe! They share stories from their visit to Paris, Rome, and Dublin!

What Are You Hiding? Dec 08, 2021

Welcome! There is SO much in this episode, so be ready!

Our answers are... hysterical. As always, thank you for listening, and don't forget the 5-star rating if you enjoy our podcast!

The Road To Recovery Dec 01, 2021

We are so excited to bring you a new episode for the first time in THREE WEEKS! Apologies for that, Mike had a wicked case of the dreaded Covid-19! Everyone is healthy now, and Mike shares his experience, symptoms etc. From there we take an unexpected detour into a very real conversation about responsible decision making that we hope will allow you to learn a little more about us than you knew before. Thanks for listening, and remember, if you enjoy our podcast to please rate us 5 stars!

CMA Week 2021 Nov 10, 2021

We are so excited to share this with you!

Small Town Livin' Nov 03, 2021

At one point in time, all of us on this podcast have lived in a small town. But before we get to that... Jenny has some MAJOR DRAMA that needs to be addressed! And she will! Afterwards, we dive into our small town lives, what we enjoyed, what we didn't, and how it makes us appreciate where we are now. Thank you as always for choosing to listen to us, we appreciate you!

Trick or Treat! Oct 27, 2021

Happy Halloween from the Morning After Podcast! We talk all things Halloween in this episode. What's the best costume you've ever worn? How old is too old to be trick-or-treating? Why is Mike such a Halloween SCROOGE?!

If you enjoy our podcast, please take a moment to give us a 5-star rating. It helps the podcast spread to a wider audience! We appreciate you, and hope you only get treats, no tricks, this Halloween!

Slang Oct 20, 2021

Get ready to be a much cooler person after listening to this episode! Once again, we're joined by Q104's newest team member, Lydia Taylor! We share some fun stories about her first month with us, and we play another round of table topics! Plus, near the end, Lydia totally schools us on the new slang words that we had no idea existed. Embarrassing for us, hilarious for you!

Backstage Pass Oct 13, 2021

One of the reasons anyone gets into radio is the awesome perks! We get to meet famous people, and it's not lost on us how awesome that is. In this episode, we want to share our most recent experience being backstage during the Jason Aldean concert. Jenny got to meet Jason's wife Brittany, who is one of her favorite people ever. We hope you enjoy the stories from behind the scenes. Also, Mike brings in Todd the Boss (affectionately called "Todd Lasso") to discuss Season 2 of Ted Lasso. There will be MAJOR SPOILERS, so if you plan on watching but haven't yet, you might consider avoiding that conversation until you finish Season 2.

Mike's Criminal Past Oct 06, 2021

You may not be shocked to learn that, in the past, Mike has had a few run-ins with the law. While he only meant to share one of those moments in this episode, Jenny masterfully convinces Mike to talk about ALL his bad deeds as a teenager. We also FINALLY learn more about "Chug", a random babysitter from Jenny's hometown.

Do You Remember... Your First? Sep 29, 2021

Cancel culture has it's latest victim! It's the words "virgin" and "virginity". They now ask that we call it your "sexual debut"! SERIOUSLY?! We'll have a little fun with that in this episode by talking about our "firsts". No, not our "sexual debuts"... first car, first friend, first job... (sorry, "employment debut".) Enjoy our conversation about all our "debuts", and reminisce on your own while your at it! If you enjoy our podcast, please leave a 5-star review, and a quick sentence or two about why you like it! It helps us grow and we would just really appreciate it! Thanks so much!

John Rich Sep 22, 2021

Thanks so much for listening! On today's episode, we welcome back producer Tater after being able to sleep in for a few months, and we catch up on things! We realized after recording this, that we talked about way too many old people things! But we make it fun anyway. Also, we share with you a conversation with John Rich of Big & Rich. He has a new show on the Fox Business Network, and yeah, we get him fired up about politics as well!

Our New Teammate! Sep 15, 2021

We have a very special edition of the podcast today, as we're joined by Q104's newest on-air talent, Lydia Taylor! We did a formal introduction on the radio, but you know we're about to have a MUCH more candid conversation here! Please have a listen, and we think you'll realize why she was the right person for the job after our conversation with her!

Table Topics: Round 2 Sep 08, 2021

Keepin' it real with you here... we had a little trouble coming up with something to talk about today. When that happens, we pull out this sweet card game called Table Topics. We pick random topics, and we go. Enjoy!

Wife Chopper Sep 01, 2021

WARNING: This episode is weird. It was a weird morning... and the weirdness continued into this podcast. We start with an opinion that some will disagree with. It's time for summer to be over. We're ready for humidity and bugs to go away for at least 6 months. Then, we learn about Jenny's exciting new Pickleball adventure, and share our athletic failures from years past. You'll also hear conversations about public restrooms, Jenny's lovely conversation with an 84-year-old woman, and finally... true crime. Shocker!

Ted Lasso Aug 25, 2021

She finally did it! After months of peer pressure, we finally got Jenny to start watching Ted Lasso... AND SHE LOVES IT! We talk all about it starting at the 24 minute mark. (Don't worry, no spoilers) Before that, we start the episode with a joke that Mike's wife shared with him in the middle of the night. Also, do you miss the enjoyment of opening up a brand new CD? We do! We'll take a trip back to our high school days and reminisce. We wrap up this week with a conversation about hair care. Not sure why, or how it even came up, but that's why you love us!

Getting Emotional Aug 18, 2021

Things that used to not get a reaction from Mike are now causing him to tear up a bit. Have you ever gotten emotional over something you saw, or losing an inanimate object? We discuss, and decide if Mike's just getting older or needs to man up. From there, we share a story that we would absolutely never get away with sharing on broadcast radio. Finally, why Labor Day weekend might be a little crazy at the Kellar household!

Need A Lyft? Aug 11, 2021

Who knew?! Jenny has only used a ride share app ONCE, and probably won't ever again! Hear why in this week's episode. We'll also talk about the awesomeness that is the Missouri State Fair lineup this year, and give a MAJOR shoutout to our spouses, who we are eternally grateful for.

Jenny Has Crabs Aug 04, 2021

Two of them, actually. Don't worry... it's not that. Find out exactly what we're talking about at about the 15 minute mark. We also talk about farts. Didn't mean to, but these things happen. We also have a fun reason why this episode is so short, which you'll hear at the end of the episode. Thanks for listening along with us!

Simone Biles Jul 28, 2021

Our #1 promise, whether it's on our radio show, or this podcast, is we keep it real! And that's definitely the case in this episode. We'll share our thoughts on USA Olympic Gymnast Simone Biles' decision to remove herself from competition because of mental issues, and how social media made this story so much uglier than it needed to be. From there, we discuss Kansas City reinstating a mask mandate. This is probably a good time to tell you that the opinions shared on this podcast are our own, and don't necessarily reflect the opinion of Q104 and our parent company Steel City Media. Enjoy the conversation :)

Called to the Principal's Office Jul 14, 2021

Let's start out with a little something different! Today, we start by sharing an interview we recently did with new artist Rayne Johnson! (2:10-10:00) You probably haven't heard of him yet, but we thought it was a really good, interesting conversation, so we want to share it with you. From there, we share some cool experiences we've had with artists who are just starting out in the industry, and how neat it is to hear their stories. We'll also talk about getting called to the principal's office, being featured in the local newspaper, and Jenny's first experience with a male stripper. It's... a CRAZY episode, and we appreciate you, as always, for allowing us to be a part of your day!

Conversation Starters Jun 30, 2021

Sometimes... it's difficult to come up with things to talk about. Daily, weekly, it doesn't matter. You hit dry spells. So we just found random conversation starters on the internet, hit record, and started talking. Today's questions included "If you could change your first name, would you, and what would you change it to?" Also, "What's the most useful item you own?". We really had fun with this episode, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did! The Morning After with Mike Kellar + Jenny Matthews is presented by Blue Beetle Pest Control.

We Didn't Plan This Jun 23, 2021

Seriously. Usually we plan out a list of things to talk about, and follow said list. Not today. We just turned on the mics, and went. Hope you like it! The Morning After Podcast is presented by Blue Beetle Pest Control.

Growing Up is Getting Old Jun 16, 2021

As soon as we finished recording this episode, we all agreed it's one of our favorites! We start with a great conversation to have with friends or family... just fill in the blank! You know you're getting older when ________! Actually, the amount of time we spend talking about the grocery store made us feel old just now! From there, we discuss what we would do for a living if we couldn't do this anymore... and every answer is so different, but so great! We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did, and thank you as always to our sponsor, Blue Beetle Pest Control!

Let Me Tell You 'Bout My Best Friend!!! Jun 09, 2021

Do you have a best friend? We share fun stories about ours in honor of National Best Friends Day! We then talk about what's in a name. Turns out, if you say "Russell" in front of Jenny, she thinks of vomit! Hear her story about that... and finally, we show some love to KC NWSL! We were lucky enough to check out a game at Legends Field. But what about their name? We brainstorm some potential names for our new team. The Morning After with Mike Kellar + Jenny Matthews is presented by Blue Beetle Pest Control!

Public Displays of Affection Jun 03, 2021

How do you feel about PDA? We dive into the most hated, and most accepted forms of PDA post-covid. We really enjoyed this conversation because it turned into all of us sharing our proposal stories, and those are always fun to share :) Very random (very fun) talk today and we hope you enjoy it!

Church May 26, 2021

We received an awesome letter from our friend Lydia that we can't wait to share with you! We'll start by reading her letter, and we begin the process of helping out a wonderful cause. From there, we dive into today's main topic... church! Not Eric, but the house of the Lord. Jenny recently found a church that her entire family loves! We have an honest conversation about why more and more people aren't going to church, and we hope you enjoy the different opinions we have about the subject! The Morning After with Mike Kellar + Jenny Matthews is presented by Blue Beetle Pest Control

The Truth Is Out There... May 19, 2021

THE ALIENS ARE HERE!!! Welcome to another episode of the Morning After, where we start by reacting to the 60 Minutes story that pretty much proved that we are not alone in the universe! From there... it's a wild ride. An unexpected celebrity got cancelled, another gets sued for $5M because of exploding candles! And then... we get way too personal! Of course... what else is new? We hope this helps you escape the real world for 36 minutes, and thank you Blue Beetle Pest Control, proud sponsor of the Morning After with Mike Kellar + Jenny Matthews!

Embarrassing Injuries May 12, 2021

Mike and Jenny limp their way to the Q104 podcast studio to share their difficult weekend, as they both sustained ridiculous injuries over the last week. After we embarrass ourselves with those stories, we celebrate the announcements made by the Chiefs and Sporting KC... FULL CAPACITY STADIUMS! We're not sure how, but after that, we take a deep dive into dentistry and fake teeth. We're not exactly sure how this conversation starts, but we're here for it, and we're glad you are too! :)

Big Nose, Big Hose May 05, 2021

Put the kids to bed before you fire up this episode, because we have a hilarious conversation about comparing the size of a man's NOSE... to the size of his... you know. We giggled like schoolchildren the whole time, and we hope you find it as funny as we do! Moving on... we also debunk 10 completely fake myths that people still believe are real in 2021. There's a good chance you still believe one of these rumors! Next, Jenny talks about a mother/daughter combo who are facing SIXTEEN YEARS IN PRISON for... trying to rig a homecoming queen vote? And finally, we ask... What's Wrong with America? Don't worry, this isn't a deep political discussion, just a silly look into little things that we think we could be better at!

Hey Mom, What's A Stripper? Apr 28, 2021

Why is that the title of this week's episode? Because Jenny's 8-year-old son actually asked her that very question! Hear her response to kick off the episode. We also tell you the new way we plan on taking out our aggressions, and you should too. We then try to convince Jenny to stay on the team, but her dream job is now available. Hear what that is before the 20 minute mark. We wrap up the week with our honest feelings about all the hate people have towards new country music. Unpopular opinions ahead! Thanks for listening along with us :)

Online Dating Apr 21, 2021

Do you love to travel? Jenny and Mike go back and forth on the pros & cons of traveling. And apparently Producer Tater has something against the state of North Dakota. From there, we move on to the wild, unpredictable world of online dating. Considering both Jenny and Mike are in happy marriages, this conversation fascinates the both of them, as they try to imagine dating in today's world. (We honestly don't know how you do it. Do y'all really ask for "those" pics so early?) And are butt selfies really a thing now???

Why Did He Whip It Out? Apr 14, 2021

Seriously, have you heard the story about the former Southwest pilot who "whipped it out"... in the cockpit of the airplane? We start the podcast by trying to answer that question. Truth be told, the entire first half of this episode is nothing more than toilet humor, and we hope you enjoy listening to it as we did having the discussion! Once we grow up, we move onto something a bit more uplifting... a return to normalcy! From Jenny traveling to see her family, to Mike going to a Major League Baseball game, we share our stories, and excitement, of getting back to normal, which we all can't wait to do. And make sure you don't miss the last bit about one of the most hilarious requests we've ever asked a country artist to do... and she obliged! We appreciate you so much for listening!

Fake It 'Til You Make It Mar 31, 2021

Welcome back to the podcast Jenny Matthews and Tater! And shout out to Mike's wife Katie for filling in last week. On this episode, is it weird to take a trip without your spouse or significant other? Also, faking it. OK, get your mind out of the gutter. We'll share what we're faking at around the 10 minute mark. We'll also touch on emotional support BEER, and Happy Baseball Season! Enjoy this 34 minutes... proudly presented by Blue Beetle Pest Control! :)

Catching Up With The Kellars Mar 24, 2021

With Jenny on vacation this week, Mike welcomes his wife Katie as special co-host of this week's podcast! We'll dive into the good and bad of meeting new people, and also the weird things we get excited about that we never would have when we were younger. Broadcasting live from their kitchen table... (seriously!)... it's NOT Keeping up with the Kardashians, it's Catching up with the Kellars!!!

A Show About Nothing Mar 17, 2021

Happy St. Patrick's Day! At least... that's when we recorded this episode. You know how Jerry Seinfeld admitted that his sitcom was a funny show about nothing? That's how we feel about today's episode. Until the end when we talk about vaccines, and how all 3 of us feel very differently about them! Lots of holiday talk and good conversation to be had, so join us!

A Royal Pain Mar 10, 2021

We wonder... are you like us, and don't care at all about the Royal Family? But at the same time, you find yourself fascinated by Oprah's interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry? We feel you, and we get all of our thoughts out on the subject. Next, we welcome Mitch, owner of Blue Beetle Pest Control, and proud sponsor of this podcast. We ask him what goes through the mind of someone the day they decide to start their own company. Finally, in honor of the Royal Family, we share some hilarious family drama stories of our own, and thank the good Lord, our families aren't followed around as closely by the paparazzi.

Dr. Seuss & Mr. Potato Head Mar 03, 2021

If not, and you're here for more of our lifestyle conversations, you're probably best to jump to the 22:40 mark. There, Mike asks Jenny and Tater for advice on healthier eating, and has to be told why grilled cheese sandwiches don't count as "healthy food". Later, we dive into cancel culture's latest victims, Dr. Seuss and Mr. Potato Head. Yes, we have opinions, and yes, we share them. If you disagree with them, no problem! We welcome all opinions, even if we disagree. What a concept! We wrap up this week's episode on a silly note. Poor Mike reveals why he thought he was so cool in high school... and he definitely wasn't! It's a roller coaster of emotions this week, and we're happy you're on the ride!

Breaking Up With Friends Feb 24, 2021

We've all gone through breakups. They're tough! But on today's episode, Jenny reveals a time where she had to break up with a best friend! An interesting discussion to kick off the podcast. Then, Jenny attempts to talk to the two guys about style, shorts, and the brutal honesty of her children. You have to hear what her daughter says about her shorts! We discuss our favorite TV shows, so if you need a new show to stream, you can't miss this! And then an unplanned, unexpected conversation... about drugs! Thank you as always for listening to our podcast, we hope you enjoy it!

Going Down The Rabbit Hole Feb 17, 2021

The arctic blast has us feeling a bit loopy! Today we dive into our biggest social fears, Jenny gets into a comment fight with an internet troll, and chest milk vs breast milk. It's wild, it's random... it's us!

Having a(n Arctic) Blast! Feb 09, 2021

We pride ourselves in keeping it real, both on our radio show and on the podcast, so we're gonna be real with you. Monday, February 8th, was an awful day. We feel like it was that way for just about everyone in KC. So we chat about how we can cheer ourselves up! We also celebrate National Pizza Day, talk about visiting the big cities on the coasts, and you have to listen to the end when we talk about the woman who got Gorilla Glue stuck in her hair! Let's have a day!

Morgan Wallen Feb 03, 2021

Today was arguably the biggest news day in country music history. In this episode, we have an honest conversation about Morgan Wallen's racial slur. Mike explains why he believes Wallen set an entire genre back several decades. Jenny compares racial slurs said by country music singers and compares to other genres. Tater discusses his future, and how this affects his career moving forward. We also celebrate something beautiful that happened in country music today, and shine a well-deserved spotlight on one of the Brothers Osborne for something that, unfortunately, will be overshadowed by the negative Morgan news. We're keeping it more real than ever today, and we appreciate you listening, and feel free to share your opinions with us.

Kansas City Is Super Again!!! Jan 27, 2021

Parenting, Gambling, & Cheating Jan 20, 2021

Welcome to the most real, honest, open episode of the Morning After yet! We start with a great story about Mike's mom, who celebrated her 60th birthday! That gets us talking about punishing your kids when they do something wrong, and how as we grow older, we realize it really does hurt the parents more than the child! From there we move on to gambling, where Mike & Jenny share the agony of watching a Chiefs game when you have a wager on it, and how they'll probably never do it again! Finally, a story about cheating we found on the internet leads to an open discussion about infidelity, breaking up, and is the phrase "once a cheater, always a cheater" true? It's a pretty personal discussion, but as always, we share our lives with you with no filter!

This Might Gross You Out... Jan 13, 2021

Come join us for a great waste of 40 minutes!

Social Shackles Oct 14, 2020
